Project description:Investigation of baseline transcription activity of two different clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus with two different susceptibility levels to the antibiotics Vancomycin and Daptomycin. Two different strains of Staphylococcus aureus, one that is fully Vancomycin and Daptomycin Sensitive and one with decreased Vancomycin and Daptomycin Sensitivity - grown to mid-log phase in rich broth.

Project description:We report the application of RNA-Seq to assess genomic transcriptional profiles of S. aureus clinical isolates from Clonal Complex 30 and related genetic backgrounds. In this study, CC30 isolates were shown to be significantly less virulent than other CCs in two in vivo sepsis models. The association of CC30 with adhesin-based complications in humans but not sepsis-induced mortality in animal models may be due in part to its unique genomic transcriptional profile and suggests that specific genotypes of S. aureus may be more likely to elicit certain complication types. Staphylococcus aureus transcriptome profiles of exponential growth phase in vitro cultures were generated by RNA-Seq in duplicate, using Illumina HiSeq2500.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a pulmonary pathogen associated with substantial human morbidity and mortality. As vaccines targeting virulence determinants have failed to be protective in humans, other factors are likely involved in pathogenesis. Here we analysed transcriptomic responses of human clinical isolates of S. aureus from initial and chronic infections. We observed upregulated collagenase and proline transporter gene expression in chronic infection isolates. Metabolomics of bronchiolar lavage fluid, fibroblast infection, growth assays and analysis of bacterial mutant strains showed that airway fibroblasts produce collagen during S. aureus infection. Host-adapted bacteria upregulate collagenase, which degrades collagen and releases proline. S. aureus then imports proline, which fuels oxidative metabolism via the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Proline metabolism provides host-adapted S. aureus with a metabolic benefit enabling out-competition of non-adapted strains. These data suggest that clinical settings characterized by airway repair processes and fibrosis provide a milieu that promotes S. aureus adaptation and supports infection.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive human pathogen causing a variety of human diseases in both hospital and community settings. This bacterium is so closely associated with prophages that it is rare to find S. aureus isolates without prophages. Two phages are known to be important for staphylococcal virulence: the beta-hemolysin (hlb) converting phage and the Panton-Valentine Leukocidin (PVL) converting phage. The hlb-converting phage is found in more than 90% of clinical isolates of S. aureus. This phage produces exotoxins and immune modulatory molecules, which inhibit human innate immune responses. The PVL-converting phage produces the two-component exotoxin PVL, which can kill human leucocytes. This phage is wide-spread among community-associated methicillin resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA). It also shows strong association with soft tissue infections and necrotizing pneumonia. Several lines of evidence suggest that staphylococcal prophages increase bacterial virulence not only by providing virulence factors but also by altering bacterial gene expression: 1) Transposon insertion into prophage regulatory genes, but not into the genes of virulence factors, reduced S. aureus killing of Caenorhabditis elegans.; 2) Although the toxins and immune modulatory molecules encoded by the hlb- converting phages do not function in the murine system, deletion of ϕNM3, the hlb-converting phage in S. aureus Newman, reduced staphylococcal virulence in the murine abscess formation model. 3) In a preliminary microarray experiment, prophages in S. aureus Newman altered the expression of more than 300 genes. In this research proposal, using microarray and high-throughput quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) technologies, we will identify the effects of the two important staphylococcal phages on the gene expression of S. aureus in both in vitro and in vivo conditions. This project is intended to be completed within one year. All the data – microarray, qRT-PCR and all the primer sequences- will be made available to public 6 month after completion. Data from this project will help us to understand the role of prophages in the S. aureus pathogenesis and can lead to development of a strategy to interfere with the pathogenesis process. Following strains were grown in TSA broth: Staphylococcus aureus USA300 (reference) Staphylococcus aureus USA300 with deletion of ϕSa2usa (Query) Staphylococcus aureus USA300 with deletion of ϕSa3usa (Query) Staphylococcus aureus USA300 Prophage-free mutant (Query) Staphylococcus aureus USA300 Prophage-free mutant lysogenized with ϕSa2mw (Query) Staphylococcus aureus USA300 Prophage-free mutant lysogenized with ϕSa3usa (Query) strain: Staphylococcus aureus USA300 Prophage-free mutant lysogenized with both ϕSa2mw and ϕSa3usa (Query) RNA samples were harvested at early log, midlog and stationary phase.Samples were hybridized on aminosilane coated slides with 70-mer oligos.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to compare the global, growth phase-dependent transcriptional profiles of two isolates of Staphylococcus aureus. One isolate is a prototypic laboratory strain named RN6390, and has been used frequently as a model organism for study of staphylococcal physiology and virulence. However, recent studies indicate that RN6390 is not, in general, genotypically or phenotypically representative of clinical isolates of Staphyloccos aureus. Therefore, there is no current comprehensive picture of gene expression patterns in a virulent, clinical isolate of Staphyloccous aureus. For these reasons, we compare the transcriptional profile of RN6390 to that of a virulent clinical isolate, UAMS-1. Also included in this study is profiling of two UAMS-1 regulatory mutants, UAMS-155, and UAMS-929. These strains possess mutations in the accessory gene regulator (agr) and staphylococcal accessory regulator (sarA) genes, respectively. These two genes are well described global regulatory molecules that are reported to play important roles in controlling virulence factor production and biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus. However, most study of these two molecules has been limited to laboratory strains such as RN6390. For these reasons, this study also includes transcriptional profiling of UAMS agr and sarA mutants.
